GAS-BURNER.

Specicaton of Letters Patent.

Patented Nov. 5, 1907.

Application filed April 25. 1906. Serial No. 313,632.

To 'all whom 'it may concern:

Be it known that I, Louis R. YANsKY, a citizen of the United States, residing at No. 4 De Kalb street, in the city ol' Chicago, county oi Cook, and State of Illinois, have invented a new and useiul Improvement in Gas-Burners, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to that class of gas burners used l'or ordinary indoor lighting purposes, and that may be attached to any of the ordinary gas fixtures.

The objectV of my invention is to provide a gas burner which can be adjusted at pleasure, for ordinary lighting purposes, or for heating purposes or for both lighting and heating combined; that will maintain the necessary light and heat, when the burner is connected by flexible tube or other means with the ordinary burner of any permanent gas fixture in a room, and with the normal supply of gas flowing through such ordinary gas burner.

The manner in which I accomplish my object is set forth in the following specifications and illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which:

Figure 1 is a top plan view of the burner, Fig. 2 is a central section through the body of the burner, Fig. 3 is a side view oi the burner, Fig. 4 is a view of the plug showing the gas ways therein, Figs. 5 and 6 are cross sections oi the plug showing the gas ways therein.

In the drawings A is the burner complete, B is the body of the burner, the cylindrical part C is threaded internally and adapted in size and thread to fit any ordinary gas fixture; from this cylindrical part through the body of the burner are two gas ways D and D1 parallel with each other. The external openings E of these gas ways are enlarged and adapted to receive and hold two ordinary gas burners tips F, the slots Gr in these tips are set parallel with each other and at right angles to the length oi the plug barrel in said main body. This arrangement oi the tips is for the purpose of having the width oi the gas Haine H parallel near the tips and then by mutual attraction merging into each other, thereby forming one flame. This arrangement oi the tips leaves an air space I between the flames near the tips which produces, iirst a more complete combustion of the gas, which greatly reduces the extent of the dark semicircle near the tip noticeable in all gas flames from ordinary burners and tips; second a steadier, stronger light; third, the production oi great heat. In the body oi the burner is a plug J. This plug has a little more taper than the ordinary plug and has a cylindrical head K which is ltnurled. The plug is retained in the burner by a nut L. Through the taper part oi the plug are three gas Ways adapted to register with the gas ways in the body of the burner. One of these gas ways M is adapted to register with the gas way D; the other two gas ways N and N1 register With the gas way D1; the gas ways N and N1 bisect each other as shown in section in Fig. 6. By this arrangement of gas ways through the plug one or both gas ways in the burner may be opened or closed, or both may be opened or closed. In the position shown in Fig. 2 the plug is adjusted for the flow of gas through the burner tip in the gas way D1 for lighting purposes only, a quarter turn of the plug opens both gas ways, and permits both gas jets to be lighted for heating as well as lighting purposes, as shown in Fig. 3.

What I claim as new and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is:

In a gas burner of the kind described the combination with a main body adapted to be attached to an ordinary gas fixture, two parallel gasways extending through said body, a barrel adapted for a plug extending through said body and intersecting said gas ways at right angles, of a plug revoluble secured in said barrel, a plurality of radial gas ways in said plug adapted to register with one and bothof said gas ways in said body as said plug is revolved, and a pair of tips supported in a parallel position to each other in said gas ways in said body, and

so adjusted that the plane of the flames therefrom will.

be at right angles to the plane of said gas ways and at right angles to the length of said plug, said gas ways and tips so spaced from each other that the two flames will merge into one.
